Dangerous Feelings

I notice in myself a certain reaction when I am comforted by an opposing idea. Being young, irrational, full of energy, and pretty hot head for an Irishman my natural instinct was to run at it like a tiger.
Now I am older and hopefully wiser. But I still fail, more often than not.
I think there is a lesson here. We can't be perfect.
Let's use an example.
The Universe came into being because of an imbalance between the total amount of matter and the total amount of antimatter and the hot, bustling, inception of our universal home. If there was too much antimatter you and I would be bristling with anti-electrons. But that did not happen...and so, we have a universe born out of asymmetry; out of imperfection.
Therefore, it is to us all to strive towards a perfect imperfection. A world where mistakes happen.
And, as they say, let's deal with it.
